I don't know if anyone has said this yet... but I always imagined that those 
cats weren't really cats, rather animagi that came to keep a watch on 
Harry... or maybe witch paparazzi.  Afterall we know that Rita Skeeter 
transforms herself into a beetle for her journalism career.  I thought Mrs. 
Figg might have been a minion of Dumbledore... like an undercover witch to 
keep the "extra eye" on Harry while he was growing up.
